The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

Chapter 327 Love is truly a magical thing

Upon hearing this, Jingying was taken aback at first, then smiled.

“I know, that girl doesn’t look like that kind of person.”

She naturally wouldn't make malicious assumptions about others, but even if someone doesn't want to, it's their right, isn't it?

Seeing that his mother had not misunderstood, Zeng Yichen breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing his appearance, Jingying became even more curious.

"You seem to care about that girl quite a bit too."

Zeng Yichen was taken aback, then chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"I used to have a crush on her without thinking, and I caused her a lot of trouble... Besides, the person she liked was so dazzling, and only someone as dazzling as him was worthy of her..."

“I see…” Jingying nodded.

Although she was Zeng Yichen's mother, she had to admit that the gap between her son and that girl was... as wide as the Milky Way.

Of course, she didn't think her son was that bad; it was just that the girl's temperament was so outstanding, like the sun, that just by quietly hanging there, she could attract everyone's attention.

Such aloof and clean, yet spontaneously flamboyant and awe-inspiring temperament could only have been seen in that young man 20 years ago.

Jingying reached out and patted Zeng Yichen's head. "Our Yichen has really grown up."

Zeng Yichen was taken aback, then gave a wry smile.

Having gone through so much, it's natural to grow up.

Mo Yilan had finished her work for the day, but she remained seated in her chair.

Yan Lele picked up her bag and prepared to leave, but seeing that Mo Yilan was still sitting there without moving, she thought that Sister Yilan should not have to work overtime today.

Curious, he walked over and saw Mo Yilan staring intently at the news webpage, neither clicking nor scrolling; she didn't seem to be browsing at all.

"Sister Yilan, aren't you leaving?"

To her surprise, his voice suddenly rang out, startling Mo Yilan.

She turned her head, saw Yan Lele, and let out a heavy sigh.

"You walk without making a sound?"

She casually complained.

Yan Lele looked completely innocent. It was clearly Yilan who had been daydreaming, so why was she being blamed?

It's understandable that Sister Yilan is in a bad mood, considering everything that just happened.

He then glanced around, furtively leaned over the table, and whispered,

"Sister Yilan, don't be sad. No matter what Mrs. Jiang's attitude is, as long as Mr. Jiang is firm enough, isn't that enough? Love is a matter between two people."

Mo Yilan was startled; her ears turned visibly red.

"What does a little kid like you know!"

With that, she shut down her computer, grabbed her bag, and left.

Yan Lele watched her fleeing figure and couldn't help but shake her head.

Sigh, I never thought that a woman who always seemed to be in control could lose control when it came to love.

Love is such a magical thing. I wonder when I'll get to experience it myself?

Mo Yilan walked quickly to the gate, then suddenly slowed down.

She figured Jiang Baishen would be waiting for her outside at this time.

She really didn't want to face it.

Every time I see him, I seem to fall deeper and deeper into his arms uncontrollably.

She was captivated by his gentleness, utterly captivated by his smiling eyes. To her, he was a harmless yet intoxicating poison, tender and alluring, every step a seduction. Knowing it would be addictive, she willingly succumbed.

I can't quit, and I don't want to quit.

But... if his mother really didn't want them to be together, she wouldn't put him in the middle and make things difficult for him.

Therefore, it's better to nip it in the bud from the very beginning than to go through the painful process of quitting later.

Mo Yilan ultimately chose to turn around and exit through another door.

When Yan Lele went out, she indeed saw Xiao Jiang and his Cullinan, a car that could buy her life.

Oh no, that's too kind of Cullinan.

However, he was a little curious. Didn't Sister Yilan come out first? Why is President Jiang still waiting for her here?

Thinking it over, he stepped forward and greeted them in a friendly manner.

"Young Master Jiang."

Jiang Baishen was taken aback. He remembered the face, but the name seemed somewhat forgotten. After trying hard to recall, he smiled and replied,

"Reporter Yan, it's been a long time."

Yan Lele was somewhat flattered; she hadn't expected the other person to still remember her.

"Are you... waiting for Sister Yilan?"

"Hmm~" Jiang Baishen didn't shy away from it at all and readily admitted it.

Yan Lele hesitated for two seconds, but still chose to remind the other party:

"Sister Yilan should have come out before me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Baishen was taken aback, and a sense of unease crept into his heart.

He subconsciously thought of the kidnapping incident from last time, and he was really afraid that something like that would happen again.

But the next second he dismissed the idea. It was rush hour, and with so many people around, a kidnapping would likely cause a commotion.

Did I just not see her? Did I miss her?

But I'm in this spot every day; if she came out, she shouldn't have missed me...

Seeing his puzzled look, Yan Lele shared her guess.

"Perhaps she went out through the south gate."

"Nanmen?" Jiang Baishen frowned slightly. "Is there something else she needs to do?"

Yan Lele could tell from his expression that he genuinely didn't know his mother had come looking for Sister Yilan.

He hesitated whether to tell him or not, after all, this was tattling, and he couldn't afford to offend Madam Jiang, a nobody like her.

Seeing the hesitation on Yan Lele's face, Jiang Baishen asked nervously,

"What happened to Yilan?"

Yan Lele didn't answer, but instead asked him a question.

"Mr. Jiang... if you like someone, will you always like them?"

Jiang Baishen was stunned, seemingly not expecting him to ask that question.

"I mean..." Yan Lele realized she had gone off-topic, so she reorganized her words, "No matter what difficulties you encounter, will you still firmly love that person?"

"Of course." Jiang Baishen answered without the slightest hesitation.

Hearing this, Yan Lele felt a little relieved. He cleared his throat.

"Um... I'm telling you, but don't tell anyone I told you that..."

Jiang Baishen nodded seriously. "What exactly happened?"

"Today, Madam Jiang, your mother, came to see Sister Yilan."

Jiang Baishen looked surprised. "My mom?? What does she want with Yilan?"

Yan Lele shook her head, "I don't know the specifics, it's just..."

"Just what?" Jiang Baishen's tone became more urgent.

Yan Lele moved closer and lowered her voice a little.

"But... it seems your mother doesn't like Yilan very much. She spoke to Yilan in a sarcastic tone in front of everyone in the office, even scalded her with boiling water, and looked at Yilan's food with disdain..."

Jiang Baishen's brows were furrowed in astonishment. His mother could actually do... these things??

Yan Lele continued to add, "Later, she called Sister Yilan out to a coffee shop and we talked about something. Anyway, when Sister Yilan came back, she didn't look too good."

Jiang Baishen touched his forehead in disbelief and took a deep breath.

"Okay, I understand, thank you."
